More FLIBS goodies from Garmin,
This time its the new Garmin GPSMAP PLUS range... kinda interesting
So we currently have the GPSMAP 752XS and 952XS... both have single 1kw chirp sonar. with Downvu (no sidevu) NMEA2K and Ethernet. wifi We also have the Echomap 1022XS and 1222XS in non touch screen without sidevu.... and we have the 1222 touch.. a budget touch screen 12" unit

And at the upper lever we have the 84XX models. in 10,12,16" guise and much larger if you like.

So these new GPSMAP plus models fit between the 752 and 8410... by giving 7" 9" and 12" the same as an 84xx series... but in smaller screens and with some less features.. its all very very ..... full. lol

but it goes a bit like this (in gamrin land)

Want a cheap sonar for a tinny or kayak... buy a Garmin striker
Want a basic combo unit with half decent sonar and mapping. Buy and echomap plus
Want a good sonar for shallow water especially habitat and an decent mapping system for a small boat.. buy an echomap UHD

Want 1kw sonar and network your engine data but dont want touch screen.... by a 1022xs/1222xs

want 12"1kw sonar and decent mapping and networking.. but dont care about sidevu etc... buy a 1222 touch

want to network your engine diagnostics, diesel engine, or control onboard systems...switching. vessel montioring. gyro etc... but only need a small screen...buy a Gpsmap PLUS unit

want all the bells and whistles.. buy a 84xx series unit

woah tahts a lot to take in. lol

anyway.. shoot questions across
